Python command script on Windows

[sgryphon]

Version Information

• vyper Version: v0.1.0-beta.5
• OS: win
• Python Version (python --version): 3.7
• Environment (output of pip freeze):
  pycryptodome==3.7.2
  vyper==0.1.0b5

What's your issue about?

After installation, the command vyper does not work on Windows.

The installation does put a shell script in the Python folder %AppData%\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Scripts

However, although this is on the path, it does not run on Windows.

Other programs often put an exe or similar file there instead.

How can it be fixed?

I put a simple vyper.cmd file in the same folder, with the contents:

@python C:\Dev\vyper\build\scripts-3.7\vyper %*

This is a hack, because it hard codes to my development path, but something similar would work if configured with the correct location installed.

@python %~dp0\vyper %*

I think the solution here is to use console_scripts with entrypoints, this way it will work on all platforms :)

Starting on this.
